Egypt climbs in global ICT development index

The Cabinet revealed on Friday that Egypt has achieved a 2.1-point increase in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Development Index (IDI) issued by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU).

The Cabinet’s Media Center indicated that Egypt’s score on this index rose from 75.8 points in 2023 to 77.9 points in 2025.

It explained that this improvement is due to the government’s efforts to enhance telecommunications services, most notably internet connectivity.

It pointed out that the number of fixed broadband internet subscribers reached approximately 12.2 million by July 2025, marking an annual increase of 8.4%, which supports the objectives of the ICT Strategy 2030.
